Fresh · Fruity · Sweet

Zara Men — Cities Collection: 03 Florence Piazza Della Signora City Center is a fresh, sweet men's fragrance built on black pepper, strawberry and gaiac wood; it has been discontinued. The spicy edge of black pepper meets the fruity sweetness of strawberry, while gaiac wood adds a woody, slightly leathery base. The overall impression is fresh and fruity, with a gourmand sweetness up front and a faintly synthetic feel running through it. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the small number of votes means these ratings are tentative. It reads clearly masculine. Zara Florence Piazza della Signoria and Davidoff Cool Water Aquaman Collector Edition have a close profile.

Zara Man Uomo Winter

8.1

Zara · 2024

Fruity · Sweet · Gourmand

Zara Man Uomo Winter is a sweet, fruity fragrance for men built around leather, vanilla and strawberry. The notes read as one whole: strawberry brings a fruity, sweet tone, vanilla pulls it towards a creamy, gourmand side, and leather adds a dry, leathery, oriental frame. The result is sugary but not entirely soft, balanced by the leather's drier touch. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. The name points to winter, and the warm, sweet character sits more comfortably in cooler weather. Perlier Vanilla - Strawberry and Corania Tutti Délices - Fraise Bonbon have a close profile.

Ode

Acca Kappa · 2016

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Acca Kappa Ode is a men's fragrance that links a spicy opening of ginger and saffron to a floral, powdery heart of Florentine iris, rose and cistus, all resting on a woody base. Its longevity and sillage are rated as good by those who voted, though the number of votes is small, so treat that with some caution. It reads masculine. The top has ginger, saffron, strawberry and cumin: a fresh, spicy start with a touch of fruitiness from the strawberry. The heart turns powdery and floral with iris, rose and cistus. The base of vetiver, patchouli, oud and cedarwood adds a woody, oriental footing. Le Labo Rose 31 and M. Micallef Rose Aoud have a close profile.

Spiderman

7.6

Corine de Farme

Corine de Farme Spiderman is a sweet fruity fragrance classed as masculine, pairing a bright opening of apple, strawberry and mandarin orange with a soft base of vanilla and cedarwood. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though few people have voted, so those ratings are only a rough guide. It is aimed at men, but its fruity, sweet build gives it a relaxed, youthful feel. It opens with apple, strawberry and mandarin orange, a lively, sugary fruit mix. In the heart, freesia and heliotrope soften it with a floral, powdery touch. In the dry-down, vanilla keeps the sweetness going while cedarwood and musk give it a calm, woody footing.

Armaf

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Armaf Nomad is a fresh, fruity men's fragrance that opens with raspberry, apple and black pepper, moves through jasmine and iris, and settles on vetiver and vanilla. The opening pairs raspberry, apple, bergamot and ginger for a bright, fruity feel. In the heart, jasmine and iris add a soft floral note. The base of vetiver, cedar, vanilla and honey grounds it in a woody, sweet finish, with citrus and spice running through the whole. Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, and they score its value for money highly. The fresh, sweet character suits everyday wear.
